Talk about soul searching...... when the new owner drove off with the truck last Friday, I just stared at it driving off and said to the wife "That's one nice truck I used to own"

Thanks Dave!

I was looking at the interior and the exterior in my 71' today wondering.......

Hmmm, I think the seed is planted.

**Ol Blue K20** · 06-11-2014, 06:00 PM

Uh oh....once planted seeds tend to grow. Im watching to see what grows..I'm sure it'll be cool for sure...

Thats's a beautiful LWB. Alot of people don't take the chance in fixing up a long bed. I load my LWB up with some plywood and it fits perfect. Congrats on your find.

Hey Rene- man I wish-I'll be in California but flying into Fresno and driving to SLO for the weekend. Loretta is still sittin in the garage- work has been crazy but stay tuned-got a couple things in the works. Really like your Longbed- She'd look good with the Delmo- Blackbird treatment ;-)

scuderia · 07-01-2014, 01:27 AM

Sweet find Rene! Your options list is a tad bit longer than the one on my new '66

**special-K** · 07-01-2014, 07:56 AM

Many guys only look at shortbeds and have no interest in longbeds. That's cool. I like them all,and have preferences according to what I'm after in each truck. I figure it's like women. I know guys who say they don't like redheads...till they see the right one. Then it's hubba hubba hubba!!

Dave, you just missed one of the best shows yet!!!! But, you can still catch it

as we are having another Brothers/ C/10 Club video made (like the one 2 years ago).....And NBC's Velocity channel was also there at the show interviewing a few C/10 Club members and their trucks

including Eric Superflysteiny (Tootsie) who just happen to win the "Best of Show" award out of 400 47-87 Chevy's and GMC's.
Funny you mentioned Del's "Blackbird" that was the truck that sparked my new "big interest" in the 60-66' era!

Tim, I just picked up some factory 68' bucket seats over the weekend and it's going to the muffler later this week for some new duals, then me and the truck we'll really be saying hubba hubba to each other!
